Collecting and Using Your Personal Data

Types of Data Collected

Personal Data

When you create an account on WaveForum or upload content, we may collect personal data such as your name, email address, artist name, and payment information (for any future monetization features). If you interact with features requiring authentication in the Waveform App, this data may be linked to your in-app activity.

For users of the Waveform App, your music library data, playlists, and preferences are primarily stored locally on your device.

Usage Data

Usage Data is collected automatically when using the Service.

Usage Data may include information such as Your Device's Internet Protocol address (e.g. IP address), browser type, browser version, the pages of our Service that You visit, the time and date of Your visit, the time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers and other diagnostic data. This data is used solely for the purpose of app and platform improvement, debugging, and analytics, and is anonymized where possible.

iCloud Sync (for Waveform App users)

Waveform App leverages Apple's iCloud for seamless synchronization of your music library data (playlists, saved songs metadata) across your Apple devices. This process is handled entirely by Apple's secure infrastructure using end-to-end encryption. We do not have access to the contents of your iCloud data. Downloaded audio files are stored locally on each device and are not synced via iCloud to preserve user storage.

Information from Third-Party Services

The Service may integrate with third-party services for specific functionalities (e.g., payment processing, analytics). For content sourced from Creative Commons archives like the Free Music Archive, while we self-host the audio, metadata may originate from these sources. Your interaction with any third-party services linked from or integrated within Waveform.ink is subject to their respective privacy policies.

Any payments for premium features or artist services will be processed via secure third-party payment gateways. We do not collect or store your sensitive payment details.

Use of Your Personal Data

The Company may use Personal Data for the following purposes:

  • To provide and maintain our Service, including to monitor the usage of our Service.

  • To contact You: To contact You by email, telephone calls, SMS, or other equivalent forms of electronic communication, such as a mobile application's push notifications regarding updates or informative communications related to the functionalities, products or contracted services, including the security updates, when necessary or reasonable for their implementation.
  • For content management and distribution: To process and distribute music uploaded by artists through WaveForum, and to display associated metadata in the Waveform App.
  • For other purposes: We may use Your information for other purposes, such as data analysis, identifying usage trends, determining the effectiveness of our promotional campaigns and to evaluate and improve our Service, products, services, marketing and your experience.

Retention of Your Personal Data

Security of Your Personal Data

The security of Your Personal Data is important to Us. We implement commercially acceptable means to protect Your Personal Data, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.
